Education: Dr. Goodnow Speaks

Dr. Frank J. Goodnow, President of Johns Hopkins, took occasion in his
commencement address to plead for " academic freedom " in American
universities, and to condemn the " recent tendency which has been
directed towards dictating to those who teach what they shall and shall
not teach, and towards excluding from textbooks matter believed to be
objectionable." The Hirshfields and Atwoods are apparently to have
opposition they will scarcely be able to meet.
